Knockout “games”: The underreported crime

Teen muggers brag, “It’s fun!”

After the shooting of black teenager Trayvon Martin in March 2012, by a man the media immediately labeled a “white Hispanic,” the President of the United States made a televised statement in which he personalized the victim, declaring, “if I had a son he would look like Trayvon.“

Barack Obama’s Justice Department and the FBI opened investigations into the death and a state grand jury was convened. In a glaring example of the racial underpinnings, the Sanford, Florida Police Department “temporarily” replaced Bill Lee, the white chief, with a black appointee. Chief Lee, a 30-year law enforcement veteran, was later fired.

Speaking of Martin’s parents, Barack Obama said, “They are right to expect that all of us as Americans are going to take this with the seriousness it deserves and get to the bottom of exactly what happened.”

Yet the brutal crimes known as “knockout games,” mostly perpetrated by bands of black youth against random white and Orthodox Jewish victims, receives stony silence from the White House.

Despite these facts, Laurie Cumbo, recently elected to represent Crown Heights on the New York City Council, released a disturbing open letter, complete with negative stereotypes about the “knockout games” earlier this week. For her skewed view, read this Truth Revolt report,“Too Many Jews: NYC Politician ‘Explains’ Racial Roots of Knockout Game.”

Obama’s double standard is quite evident. While Trayvon Martin became his “son,” what are the black teen perpetrators of this horrific criminal activity, which has also taken lives? Some of the survivors of this “game” have suffered permanent disabilities. Where is the outrage from this hypocritical president and Eric Holder in these cases? As far as the mainstream media, they won’t say anything that highlights the criminality of roving bands of black youth. Doing so would raise too many questions that would make their liberals accomplices uncomfortable.

Absolutely! The tragic fact is that liberal policies going back decades have rendered fathers unnecessary, since they were supplanted by welfare checks. Intact black family households were commonplace, just as white families were. Lyndon Johnson’s (not-so) Great Society was instrumental in changing that. Unwed teen mothers soon realized their checks would grow as their families grew. As the drug based lifestyle took hold, grandmothers became the mothers to many of these children. Fast forward a generation later. The grandmothers are now the formerly unwed, drug addicted teens who were unable to successfully raise their own children so now the children are raising themselves, bonding with gangs since there is no family structure. Thanks liberals and their feel good policies for this disaster!!

The newly elected council member Laurie Cumbo sounds like a moronic bigot. Her anti-Semitism is on full display with her comments. The Crown Heights riots and the biased, double standard reporting of the New York Times which lead to the mob related murder of scholar Yankel Rosenbaum is well reported in this post in the conservative American Thinker. It’s one of my go-to sites (along with Seeing Red AZ, of course!!)
